Alright, gather 'round for a tale that'll warm your heart faster than a cup of cocoa on a winter's day. This story's about love, friendship, and all the good stuff in between.
Once upon a time, in a neighborhood where everyone knew everyone else's business (and usually didn't mind), there were two best friends named Lily and Max. They were like two peas in a pod, always causing mischief and laughter wherever they went.
Now, Lily had a secret crush on their neighbor, Alex. She'd blush whenever he walked by and stumble over her words whenever they spoke. Max, being the observant friend he was, couldn't help but notice.
One sunny afternoon, while they were lounging in the park, Max decided it was time to play cupid. With a mischievous grin, he hatched a plan to get Lily and Alex together, even if it meant embarrassing himself in the process.
So, armed with enthusiasm and a touch of clumsiness, Max set his plan into motion. He orchestrated chance encounters between Lily and Alex, conveniently forgetting his phone at their table during lunch or "accidentally" bumping into them on their evening strolls.
At first, Lily was mortified by Max's antics. But as she watched him stumble through his schemes with a twinkle in his eye, she couldn't help but laugh. And slowly but surely, she found herself falling for Max in a way she never expected.
Meanwhile, Alex couldn't help but notice the sparkle in Lily's eyes whenever she laughed, or the way she lit up whenever Max was around. Intrigued, he started spending more time with the dynamic duo, drawn in by their infectious energy and genuine friendship.
As days turned into weeks, Lily and Max's friendship blossomed into something deeper, fueled by shared laughter, late-night conversations, and a bond stronger than steel. And though their journey had its ups and downs, they knew they had each other's backs through thick and thin.
And as for Alex? Well, let's just say he found love in the most unexpected place—with two best friends who taught him that sometimes, the best relationships are the ones built on laughter, trust, and a whole lot of friendship.

It Looms
It was always there. Without fail. It never seemed to leave. I had trouble going to sleep at night. Whether it be stress from my mundane life, or just because I wanted to stay on my device for longer than normal, it took time, still does sometimes. When the sleep does come, I am greeted to the most wonderful dreams imaginable, and the most devastating nightmares possible . I glide through the open skies, without a care in the world, I am sometimes greeted with familiar faces from my past, the landscape can be whimsical from top to bottom, it could be a mixture of all the places around the world, or just places I am familiar with. I have seen demons take me to a rusted overgrown deserted town just to torture me. The nightmares back then got to me, but now they serve as nice wee entertainment and a thrill mostly, once I wake. But back then, I didn't look up. Even if I were to fly into the clouds, I would close my eyes. I would distract myself in the dream, and let it play out. But it was always there. The object in the sky. Nightmares be damned. It terrified me, still does sometimes.
